    • About Me

      Hi, I'm a singular severe depressive who doesn't know how to describe himself!!! During the waking hours I drive a truck around the midlands & leics for a builders merchant. I will add more in time, though any suggestions are welcome.....

    • Interests

      Apart from finding my feet as a singlebod after a few years, I play the tuba and bass guitar, follow my inquisitive mind and am sliding back towards gothdom. I also read a lot, cook, try to battle my shyness by getting out into the amazing cathedral/univ city where I live. All this is usually backed with an eclectic taste in music/film/arts!!

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I was a nightmare mess for my first 27 years, due to a frontal lobe brain condition affecting my thinking/reasoning & severe depression through this caused by bullying of the physical/mental kinds. I still have anxiety problems, insecurity & SAD. I have been on quite a few treatments but I can't remember the drug names any more.

      Treatments

      Meditation Too Soon to Tell
      Paxil Working / Worked
      Seroxat has been my rock for the past 10 years, keeping me functioning quite well with manageable side affects.
      Prozac Not Working
      It made me sleep 23 out of 24 hours a day!! Great for my carers....
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      It was good to discuss stuff that had haunted me but not so good being made to remember them.
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Wouldn't of made it without them!!! I was lucky they stood by/continue to stand by me.
      Writing Too Soon to Tell
      I hope to share experiences and get support from fellow folks as I still feel likenits only me.
    • Close Shyness

      I've suffered with shyness & poor self esteem throughout my life which has made life, at times, impossible. Though I can function day to day, it all still challenges me, especially as I've recently found myself single again.
